### Test of the supply current
By measuring the supply current I_SC, the general function of the individual amplifiers (High Power Amplifier ZHL-20W-13SW+) is to be tested. For this purpose, a multimeter (VOLTCRAFT MT-51, SN: 09126841) was inserted into the current path of the supply current I_SC. According to the amplifier's data sheet, the supply current I_SC is max. 2.8 A during proper operation (with fan). The values measured (Table 2) are within the tolerances.

### Power measurement
The power measurement is intended to test the general function of the PTX amplifier. For the test setup, an attenuator (inventory no.: 98041129), an oscilloscope (inventory no.: 200052853/1) and a signal generator (inventory no.: 97037910) were used as displayed in Figure 6. The attenuator has an attenuation factor of -30 dB. The measured results are displayed in Table 3.
